CHEM 398 - Molecular Spectroscopy

3 units (fi 6)(EITHER, 3-0-2)

An integrated course in the quantitative and more advanced aspects of spectroscopy and its applications in chemistry. The subjects may include: absorption, emission, dichroism, vibrational and rotational spectroscopy of molecules; time-resolved spectroscopy; nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy; surface-specific spectroscopies. A virtual molecular spectroscopy laboratory is included that incorporates the use of computers in predicting spectra and interpreting experimental results. Lab meetings will run for 6 - 8 weeks throughout the term. Prerequisite: CHEM 282.

CHEM 681 - Special Topics in Physical Chemistry

3 units (fi 6)(EITHER, 3-0-0)

Prerequisite: consent of instructor. Course may be repeated for credit, provided there is no duplication of specific topic.

CHEM 105 - Introductory University Chemistry II

3.8 units (fi 6)(EITHER, 3-0-3/2)

Rates of reactions, thermodynamics and equilibrium, coordination chemistry, electrochemistry, modern applications of chemistry. Prerequisite: CHEM 103 or 101. Note: Restricted to Engineering students only. Other students who take this course will receive 3 units.
